Portal 2 is magnificent. The story is great and Valve didn't disappoint me. There's this test chamber I'm stuck in- IT MAKES ME BURST INTO TEARS. But anyways, let's focus on positive things. My favorite line was "Let's give your birth parents a call. *ring* 'Sorry, but the birth parents you are trying to reach don't love you. Hang up',"

I'll pick this up either sometime this weekend or next weekend. Gamertag is Lv97 Magikarp if anyone wants to play co-op when I get it.

There has to be some kind of story behind that tag.

Sure it's been a long time, but I can't see GLaDOS going to the effort of redesigning all the wall panel colours and introducing the movable chambers and stuff, unless everything from the first game was in a different, older wing. I think I prefer the cleaner look of the new game, and the rail system and stuff, it just doesn't seem to tie in very well with the dirty back corridors of the first game.

I used to play a lot of TF2 (and still do), So I wanted something silly to come up when I dominated people. It was originally going to be Lvl 99 Magikarp, but that was taken. Anyways, I'm happy with it, and now when I dominate people it says "Lv97 Magikarp IS DOMINATING [gamertag]"

THAT'S MY STORY, AND I'M STICKING TO IT.

Nice to finally get a game that lives up to the hype this year, Completing it has made me want to start a Half Life 2 playthrough, Dam you Valve!.

Exact same thing that happened to me.

I just went through and got some achievements...just cause I can. I listened to a bunch more dialogue that is very situation-oriented.



I also played through with some developer commentary on. What they did for the opening sequence is craaaazy.

just finished my second runthrough of the solo campaign to pick up achievements i didn't get the first time around (couldn't find that dumb painting for the longest time...)

Still the best line in the entire game...

I'm noticing this too. Portal 2's rooms seem to be in cubes in a giant empty room, not counting the old facility. Portal 1 definitely wasn't like that.

Well, 5 and half hours. Only a couple good puzzles which were all towards the end. No advanced chambers to do. I really shouldn't have spent $50 on this.

I really enjoyed the game, I just finished it about 10 minutes ago. I spent about 7 hours in single player. Overall very fun.

Psssst, there's a co-op campaign that's as long as the single player.

Just beat it. Quite an odd ending, to say the least. However, it all makes sense and the puzzle peices come together if you paid attention to the dialog.

well, i went to best buy and they had a portal 2 section with GLaDOS talking. ill give portal another chance because i really really want to like portal.

How can one not like Portal? :huh:

I won't be getting my copy until next wednesday atleast. That what i get for being cheap :lmao:

So I had to go without internet for a day as I waited for my new wireless adapter to arrive, and in that time I finished the single player in offline mode. Not entirely sure how long it took but I know it was longer than 4 hours. It was a pretty great game, and one of the few that made me laugh with it and not at it. The only problem I have with it is that there were multiple instances where I felt like certain chambers were just filler. I never really felt that way in the first Portal, but I guess that was because the player didn't know there was anything more to do than tests. Still, as a whole it was really enjoyable and definitely one of the more memorable gaming experiences I've had.

My 800 ms ping doesn't like me... and I has no friends.

Saw this on the Steam forums, thought it was cool:
(Robot Chicken reference)

I finished Portal 2 today. Such a great game. PSN is down so no co-op for today. I started a new game though and got a few achievements I didn't get on my first run.
